Overall Very Satisfied
First of all, I'd like to say that when I bought this product, I kept in mind the wireless ability, noise cancelling feature, price, then quality, in that order. They also have an inline mic that is not the greatest. I didn't get this for the mic though. I mostly use this for casual use since I've gotten tired of wires trippin' out on me. 1. Appearance 7/10 - It's made of plastic. It feels cheap but that's also a benefit, since it is quite light on the head. It came in a nice box with a microUSB - USB charger, slightly shorter than 2 feet. It does not come with a bag or anything to hold it, so if you're looking to have something to put it in for carrying, you'll have to get that separately. I bought a wireless bluetooth adapter to plug into my laptop, and while the sound won't go through thick walls or around corners easily, I'm plenty happy to have it at maximum quality while I'm in my room. 2. Sound Quality 7/10 - They have average sound quality. It doesn't get too bassy, and it's not too rough on the higher frequencies. I've used these headphones for some music mastering and they do an okay job (they pass on music editing but they're not that great), but they should be perfectly fine for casual use. There is a slight decrease in performance when the noise cancelling is turned on but it's not that noticeable to me. By using the cable that comes with the device, you can get a wired connection. I haven't noted any significant increase in performance by wiring it up though, and the microUSB - USB that comes enclosed does not do a great job of keeping the connection stable for wired listening. However, the cable provides a decent enough connection to charge. You buy these things for the wireless capability anyways. 3. Noise Cancelling 8/10 - The great part is the noise cancelling part. My bathroom is rather close to my room, but I can turn on the fan and then turn on the noise cancelling and it reduces the noise by a ton. Unfortunately, it won't reduce noise like bed-springs coming from the room above me. 4. Battery Life 9/10 - I've had these headphones for a little over a month now, and I can say that the battery life seems to be doing okay. You see, there isn't a great indicator of battery life on these things. FYI When fully charged the red light at the base of the headphones will turn off, and when they run out of battery they emit a sad sound after you try to power it up before it dies again. After having forgotten to charge the headphones for a few days, my estimate is that they last for about 25 hrs on bluetooth. I haven't checked the battery life with the noise cancelling on, but I would suspect around 10 hrs. 5. Comfort 6/10 - Well honestly, they're a nice balance for me. They feel comfortable around the ears and all, and the material surrounding the ears is nice. However, it should be noted that these headphones do tend to feel a bit tight. It doesn't bother me too much because if I have them on for that long, then I feel that it is a good health indicator to myself that I've probably been wearing them for too long. 6. Durability - I'm not quite too sure on this point. I've noticed that sometimes switching it off doesn't quite switch it off and it tries to connect. I've gotten around this point by flipping it all the way to noise cancelling, then going back to switch it to off. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. I get the feeling that it might be related to a low battery since it has only happens then, but I'm not certain. The headset itself is quite durable. I recommend this to anyone on a slightly lower budget that can't afford those top end wireless headphones. I think these are a great deal for the price, and definitely recommend.
